Electro Hardware MP1015M06F16M4 Female Hex Standoff M4

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE MP1015M06F16M4 is a female hex circuit board standoff designed to create precise spacing between PCBs, mounting panels, and enclosure surfaces. Machined from aluminum alloy with a plain, bright uncoated finish, this standoff features a fully threaded M4 x 0.7 internal thread with an 8 mm thread depth that runs the full length of the body. The hex body shape measures 6 mm width across flats, allowing standard hex drivers to be used during installation. At 8 mm overall length, this fastener suits compact PCB stacking applications where controlled standoff height is critical to component clearance and airflow management.

This standoff is suited for light-duty electronic assembly work in residential, commercial, and industrial control panels, HVAC control boards, and general PCB mounting applications. Technicians and assemblers use it wherever a threaded female post is needed to accept a machine screw from above while maintaining a fixed, repeatable board-to-surface gap. The metric M4 x 0.7 thread size is common in both OEM equipment manufacturing and field-service board replacement work.

Key Features

• Fully threaded female interior with M4 x 0.7 thread and 8 mm thread depth for full fastener engagement
• Hex body shape with 6 mm width across flats accepts standard hex wrenches and nut drivers
• Aluminum construction with T3 material grade keeps weight low at approximately 0.00184 pounds per piece
• Plain bright uncoated finish meets QQ-A-225A Comp 2 material standard
• Length tolerance of -0.13 mm to 0.13 mm supports consistent board-to-board spacing in tight assemblies
• Metric sizing aligns with standard M4 hardware used in commercial electronics and control board assemblies

Compatibility

Designed for use in any PCB or panel assembly requiring a female M4 x 0.7 metric threaded hex standoff with an 8 mm overall length. Suitable as a general-purpose metric standoff in control board mounting, electronics enclosures, and equipment panel applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electronics assemblers and field service technicians. Before installing or replacing control board standoffs, de-energize all circuits and follow lockout/tagout procedures per applicable codes. A 6 mm hex driver or nut driver should be used to seat the standoff without over-torquing, as aluminum threads can gall or strip if excessive force is applied. Ensure mating screws are the correct M4 x 0.7 thread pitch before installation to avoid cross-threading.
